Raging Desire

It's Saturday night, and the phone rings as men seek companionship from me,
one whose heart has willingly been taken hostage,

a heart belonging to only one man...you.

Oceans apart, but my soul longs for your sweet seductive songs that I dream of 
as you whisper tender promises into a naive ear while I yearn for the fulfillment 
that only you can provide.

You are the only man who will ever touch my breasts or kiss these hungry lips.

Am I delusional in my belief that I will be happy...?  That we will be happy...?

Is it conceivable that we will become lovers...?

You make me smile through tangled wires although in the light of day I drift 
through crowded corridors...faceless rabble...

Furiously frustrated!

Empty.

Alone.

These days I am much happier in the dark.

I read your verse, and I am shaken, moved as never before, chained in a corner...

Only you have the key.

Saturday nights are the most difficult, especially when the phone rings, and I 
feel...

Nothing!

For yours is the only voice that I need to hear, your gentle voice; I am happy, for a 
while, at least.

So I wait for the day when our eyes meet, and I am finally able to JUMP into those 
strong arms.

You are my eternal ride...

Only you.
